I believe I followed the instructions. I did the steps in: To install the sample databases and samples after Setup. But then when I tried to register the AdventureWorks Database, in the New Server Registration Dialog Box, I clicked on the AdventureWorks (in the Connect to Database listbox), then I clicked TEST button, I'm getting an error says: "Cannot open database requested in login...." So I thought it was installed but not attached, so what I did I used the ATTACH context menu in the Database, i looked for the .mdf file, but I'm still getting an error. But I was wondering why when I installed AdventureWorks it didn't go to this path: n:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.n\MSSQL\Data. It when here: n:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Samples \AdventureWorks OLTP. And I'm getting an error when i'm trying to attach it:confused: hope this makes my problem clear and hope you can help me. Thanks!
